Cold As Stone

She left town early on a Friday Headin' down to family in New Orleans Said she needed to feel the sun on her face Talk it out with herself Try to get things straight Lord, all I know is I don't wanna breathe I wish I was cold as stone Then I wouldn't feel a thing I wish I didn't have this heart Then I wouldn't know the sting of the rain I could stand strong and still Watching you walk away I wouldn't hurt like this Or feel so all alone I wish I was cold as stone Almost turned around in Mississippi Pulled over on the shoulder along the way Thought by now, I'd be fine But all these tears are blurring every line And I think back to when you were mine I wish I was cold as stone Then I wouldn't feel a thing I wish I didn't have this heart Then I wouldn't know the sting of the rain I could stand on my own Then your memory fades I wouldn't hurt like this Or feel so all alone I wish I was cold as stone Yeah, it's gonna take forever to get over you Oh, and I don't think this pain's gonna go away Oh, scars left when it's said and done remain I wish I was cold as stone I wish I was cold as stone I wish I was cold as stone Then I wouldn't feel a thing I wish I didn't have this heart Then I wouldn't know the sting of the rain I could stand strong and still Watching you walk away It wouldn't hurt like this Or feel so all alone I wish I was cold as stone I wish I was cold as stone
